Aadhaar, PAN, and Ration Cards Not Valid for Citizenship Proof: Government

The Indian government has clarified that Aadhaar, PAN, and Ration cards are not valid documents for proving citizenship. In a recent announcement, the government stated that only Birth Certificates and Domicile Certificates are officially recognized for citizenship verification. This decision debunks the belief that Aadhaar and PAN could serve as proof of citizenship.
